In the beginning my lovely wife bought me a Fein Multitool, corded. It was fine, but corded. Since then I acquired a 20v Max Dewalt multitool. The blades don't fit.
I'm cutting things like deck screws and the DeWalt blades wear out quickly. One of their [COLOR=rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.87)]Bi-Metal Oscillating Tool Blades ($10) lasted 5 screws.

Web research shows carbide is best with Bosch the leader. However Bosch doesn't fit. And the carbide ones (Dremel, Dewalt) I've been finding have poor reviews.

Any recommendations for blades to fit Dewalt with carbide?

I have the same tool and I used a blade that is a half circle that is is diamond encrusted for jobs like that and it holds up pretty well.

I have a Fein Multimaster and I thought almost all blades were interchangeable nowadays.

There are still several brands of tools and atachments that that are still proprietary,
Dremel for example, and a couple others I don't recall at the moment but I remember the blades will not fit my tool.

For me the MultiMaster is not a tool I need every day but when needed it is the best and most essential tool I have.

If they are Chinese Carbide blades then they are rubbish.

I have the Bosch version and the carbide blades work pretty well but not good enough to cut all the screws out of a deck. Is there another way to tackle the job?

I use my Dewalt multitool all the time but cutting metal isn’t its strong suit. If you can get the job done with a sawzall or grinder I think you’ll be happier.

Those multi tool blades are expensive when using non Chinese, and don’t last long when cutting metal.

I prefer recip saw with carbide blades, if they will work in your situation.
